Times Square, Manhattan -- A century-old water main broke under Seventh Avenue in Midtown, flooding streets and effectively suspending number 1, 2 and 3 subway service through Manhattan. The 20-inch main broke at Seventh Avenue at West 40th Street, just above the Times Sq 42nd St subway station, which quickly flooded just after 3 a.m. Tuesday. The water flowed south through the subway system to the 14th Street station, where it settled above the rail. Number 1, 2 and 3 subway service was "severely disrupted in Manhattan" through the morning commute, creating a travel nightmare for many New Yorkers.
